Big Sur Fire Destroys 15 Homes, Forces 100 to Flee
From the Associated Press:
“A wildfire burning Monday in the Big Sur area of California destroyed at least 15 homes and forced about 100 people to evacuate as it chewed through dry vegetation on its way toward the ocean. No injuries were reported. …
“A wildfire so late in the year is unusual but not surprising given that California is in the midst of the driest calendar year on record.”
